Hi,
Looking for suggestions on suitable sun cream for 11 yr old DD who has atopic eczema, mainly affecting her face. Her skin is in good condition at the moment but we are now repeating the desperate search for something she can tolerate in this fab weather.
So, we used to buy a combination of simple sensitive suncare ranges but that ceased production last year for some reason & we haven't yet found anything that DD can tolerate on her face. DD is very good at putting the cream on but we haven't found anything gentle enough that doesn't sting her face.
Can anyone with a child with very sensitive facial skin give suggestions on what to try? She's using the sun block lip balm just now but that's quite fiddly to put on & she keeps snapping the stick cos she over extends it. I'm thinking of emailing the companies asking them to make a chunkier stick for applying it, but in the meantime, I'm open to suggestions.
